Device management (MDM)
Manage everything in one place
“We wanted an open-source MDM to easily use configuration-as-code, deliver the best possible experience for our employees, and make security happy.”
Kenny Botelho
Lead Client Platform Engineer
Debunk the cross-platform myth
Conventional wisdom holds that cross-platform MDM solutions don't hold up at scale. Few, if any, have lived up to the hype.
Instead, Fleet lets you work directly with data and events from each native operating system. So while you can still use familiar concepts like smart groups and extension attributes, you don’t get stuck “talking Windows” to Apple devices.
Operating systems
Enforce OS updates with Declarative Device Management (DDM), Nudge, and Windows Update from one console.
Automated enrollment
Drop-ship devices to your end users with Apple Business Manager or Autopilot and let them set up their own account. No IT help needed.
Config management
Manage settings with configuration profiles for Apple and device profiles for Windows. Use a canary team to test changes before they go live.
App management
Keep applications and plugins secure and up-to-date automatically. Install the software end users need or let them install it themselves via self service.
Scripts and events
Easily manage and version control your custom script library. Execute shell and PowerShell scripts when computers drift from the baseline.
Keep up with Apple
Fleet's team and community stay on top of the latest features and releases from all supported platform vendors—not just Apple.
